Against the background of the very high wear of the contact material surfaces, ceramics with their outstanding wear properties are ideally suited to application in extrusion processes. Thanks to their high wear resistance, it is possible to reduce machine downtime, metal contamination of the product as well as the torque moment. The application of ceramic components requires a new mindset of the design engineers because they also have to take into account the typical disadvantages of ceramics, like pure linear material behaviour, limited breaking elongation and statistical fracture behaviour including size effect.
